Guest speaker Commissioner Edith Ramirez will unite bar members from all different organizations and discuss the importance of diversity and how it has played a role in her life, and how it can benefit the legal field in general. Commissioner Ramirez was nominated by President Obama to serve on a five member commission that works against deceptive advertising and enforces adherence to antitrust law. Previously, Commissioner Ramirez was a partner at Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan, in Los Angeles, where she specialized in intellectual property and business litigation. While there she represented a diverse range of clients, including Mattel Inc., The Walt Disney Company, and Northrop Grumman Corp., in ac- tions involving copyright and trademark infringement, antitrust and unfair competition claims, business tort, and other general business litigation cases. She graduated from Harvard-Radcliffe College and served as editor of Harvard Law Review. Join Lawyers Club and learn about this extraordinary woman’s path and the challenges she faced as a woman and a woman of color.
